I'm sad M18 is being hit further with the nerfbat. Really now, leave the poor Hellcat alone.

Havent had it yet, cuz when it was introduced, I'm already on the T25/AT, no point in doing 2 American TD line. But IMHO, M18 is a real looker, best looking tank in the game to me, sebijik like, ford focus RS. LOL!

On a spec note though, M18, isn't really a strong TD in the first place anyway, speed is there, but its almost like a drag racer, if u hit a wall or up a hill, the top speed will not sustain. And also, looking at the hull armor, its really paper thin. 16/16/16!!! and this is Tier 6 mind you. Oh.. and not to mention the hand rotating turret speed. Lol!

On paper, M18 isn't impressive. But on the field, there's a reason why it is feared. smile.gif

You must remember the modus operandi of the American turreted TD line. If you're seen, you're doing it wrong. M18 is a silent killer, not a front line TD like StuG III or JadgPz IV.

i love my m18,dont use as a close combat..my m18 have camo+telescope+90mm gun..

Heh, yes.

Although there are times when it is fun to just drive up like a flanking medium tank and unload that 90mm shell into the rear of a KV-3. tongue.gif That usually ends badly for me, but I like the option to do that in the M18.

Urban map is a different kind of fun, once you get to know them. tongue.gif

Use them to practice TD mode. Especially fun with Hummel, since it has a respectable acceleration and very big turret traverse. (Also doable with SU-8 and even SU-14, if you play your cards right.) You might also learn how to provide indirect fire over your own friendly tanks.

To be fair, I still do earn a respectable amount with my KV-3/T25/2.

How exactly you bot in this game?
*
To be honest, botting is more pointless in this game than other MMORPG.

The reason being by the fact that you're botting, you're already condemning your own team to a more likely loss. More so if you happen to be the top tank that is much needed to lead the push. Which translate into a smaller credit and exp gain. Also since these two are only given by damage and spotting, you're even more unlikely to gain much exp even with botting.

tl;dr Why do people even bother?

now that i have IS i realize it has the same firepower as kv1s albeit the IS has lower top speed, which kinda sucks since it has better hp/ton.

btw how do you guys grind ur credits?
i use kv, kv1s, n IS
tho the kv1s n IS earning depends on how many shots u bounce since ammo is 1k each
now have to save 2.5mil for is3 which is taking a while

M18 (and to a certain extent, its ugly cousin the T25/2.) tongue.gif

Best credit earner.

My SU-14 and KV-3 also nets me good income most of the time.

anyone got premium tanks? are they worth it?

I have the SuperPershing. It's not the best Tier VIII tank by a long shot, but I had fun with it. (plus it makes a very nice credit income.)

EDIT: I should all premium tanks are good income earners, though some are better than others. And those in higher tiers will make more than lower tiers.

Game isn't popular enough to warrant a subforum anyway. The thread in Online Games has barely enough activity.

Nothing can save your team in that case. Unless the enemy team suddenly turned into giant idiots.

thx for the info and RU TDs series ? u mean russian TD?
the SU-85B i finally got its early 85mm gun , that gun is powerful it can penetrate most tank at its tier and 1~2 tiers higher tank , sometime i encounter KV-1 but well place shot can destroy them

one crazy moment is while using a Su-85B i encounter a M18 i shot him 1st, cutting its hp till around 60% but his shot leave me around like 1~3% hp
i back away and hide behind the building , and he came chasing me confident can kill me, but as my last ditch i load HE round and wait for him to came out
as he reveal his side , i fired and cause an instant death for that m18
*
Considering all M18s have paper armour, you made the right choice. tongue.gif

(I would know, I drive M18 religiously. Even a T1 tank can penetrate its armour with ease.)

In unrelated news, I just earned my fourth Boelter's with my M18. smile.gif

With the new matchmaking, you won't be meeting any tank below Tier 6.

Loved my KV-3 bouncy armour. One of the few Tier VII that is a joy to play.

You'll be surprised at how many Russian (and American) heavies who think they're snipers. I have had a M6 asking me (a T-43) to scout because "I'm faster". A T-43 might be faster but I'm not a bloody scout for your puny gun.

While I'm here, I'll post these.

Premium tanks are good long term investment if you want to credit grind. Just be aware that premmy tanks are usually inferior to fully upgraded tanks of the same tier. (Except maybe the Type 59, Lowe and /maybe/ Churchill).

Higher tier premium tanks are more expensive, but they earn more as well.
